Yes, apparently I need to, but I can't figure out how to do it! Do you know a way to put alternative lyrics into the same context, so that in the example both `shall' and `shall not' are aligned with the second note?
That's trivial. If you give a name to a context, it is uniquely identified by its name, so you can do
\context Lyrics = mainlyrics \lyricsto "melody" { we o- ver- come }
\context Lyrics =mainlyrics \lyricsto "1" { shall not }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "2" { shall }However, a simpler solution is to avoid to keep the original
Voice context for the upper music line when the music splits
into two voices. This is easiest done by not using the
<<{...} \\ {...}>> feature (untested):
\score{
<<
\context Voice = "melody" {
\relative c' { c
<< {\voiceOne c8 e} \context Voice = splitpart {\voiceTwo c4} >>
\oneVoice c4 c | c
}
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" { we shall not o- ver- come }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "splitpart" { shall }
